I manage to face both of you over-confident warmongers with near-equal force, and both of you have insane luck against me. screw this.

A total of 15 Hapsburg Regulars and Mercs killed so far this turn. I suspect that Chucky and Alba are in danger of joining Ferdinand in captivity as well.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I refer you to the battle dice from the last time I was at vienna.

Hapsburgs: Play Card as Event
#110: 4 / War with Persia

Message from Hapsburgs:
And the play in my impulse

Ottoman player must remove 5 land units from the map and place them (along with any leaders desired) on this Foreign War card. Persians start with 3 land units. If Ottoman strength drops below 5 land units, all new Ottoman land unit builds must be placed on card until total of 5 is restored.

Chucky and Alba are depressingly safe.

I can't believe Tamas lost an 11 vs. 18 battle!  Oh, cruel fate!
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Dice rolling was good, he went from having 33 dudes on map to having just 18. Plus he'll probably lose both genoa and vienna.

This would have been such a wonderful combo play if I still had an army around :(

Say, can I build habsburg mercs in hungarian spaces?

So far, that's 2 English and 1 Protestant event plays in favor of the Hapsburgs.  Oy.
